Reply to comment by DanielAlman in WPXI: Pittsburgh police release details about sexual assault allegations against high school students by DanielAlman

I never understood the people who use the “these criminals don’t live here” response when crime happens in their neighborhood.

Who cares where they live? If you are getting robbed would you feel better if your neighbor was doing it? The red flag is where the crime is happening not where the criminal goes home to rest his head

It seems like you are really saying that you don’t want outsiders in your neighborhood which is a very privileged way of thinking. Maybe build a wall around squirrel hill?

I'm happy to have the 99.9% of visitors to Squirrel Hill who are law abiding. You do raise a good point.
